ABSTRACT: A comparison of Ky mouse mutant soleus muscles versus wildtype soleus muscles. Hybridisation of 3 Mouse SGC 7.5k oligo slides, using 3 independent pools of 10 mice (5 male, 5 female)for both WT and mutant animals.
Project description:A comparison of Ostesy mutant soleus muscles to wildtype soleus muscles. Hybridisation of 3 Mouse SGC 7.5k oligo arrays, using 3 pools of 10 mice(5 male and 5 female) for mutant and WT.
Project description:Direct comparison of gene expression in 13.5dpc embryonic gonad/mesonephros between male Mrotm1H/Mrotm1H mice and male wild-type littermates. Two independent pools of 10 gonads (5 mice) were compared on 4 microarrays (two colourswaps).
Project description:Comparison of gene expression in adult male mouse livers between wildtype mice and Transgenic mice expressing human Small Heterodimer Partner in hepatocytes.
Project description:CD14+ purified bovine monoctye stimulation with CpG ODN 2007 vs. GpC ODN 2007, CpG 2007 vs. Control, GpC 2007 vs. Control and Media vs Control (Control is unstimluated CD14+ purified bovine monocytes at time zero). Before stimulation, the CD14+ purified bovine monocytes were rested for 20 h. Then the cells were stimulated for 4hrs.
Project description:We have compared gene expression in human nasal brushing cells from 19 cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and 19 healthy controls using a 5.2K cDNA microarray. Our aim is to identify new disease biomarkers for the Cystic Fibrosis Gene Therapy Consortium. These markers will be used to report more effectively on the response to the administration of gene therapy in vivo. Cystic Fibrosis is a recessive genetic disease caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis conductance regulator (CFTR) gene which encodes a chloride ion channel. The most common mutation is the ∆F508 mutation, present on 70% of CF chromosomes in Caucasian populations. The disease affects many organs in the body such as the pancreas, liver, sweat glands, small intestine and reproductive tracts but is most commonly associated with progressive, inflammatory lung disease. The current average life expectancy of CF patients is 35 years. Gene therapy is being developed as a treatment for CF airway disease, however, means of measuring the efficiency and efficacy of gene therapy in vivo are lacking. This is mainly due to the difficulty in measuring the chloride conductance of CFTR in cells and tissues. Furthermore, clinical assays for measuring improvements in lung function are insensitive. Surrogate markers of inflammation and CFTR function will therefore be important for the effective assessment of gene therapy in vivo. We have analysed gene expression in human nasal epithelium as this is considered an accessible surrogate for the conducting airways where disease manifests in the majority of patients. Additionally, this tissue will be sampled in clinical trials.
Project description:Four male SHR/Ola, BN and SHR-18 rats were fed a normal diet and sacrificed at 9 weeks of age. Four male SHR/Ola and SHR-18 rats at 8 weeks of age were fed 1% NaCl for one week and then sacrificed. Kidneys were removed and frozen in liquid nitrogen for all 20 animals. Total RNA was isolated, labelled cRNA was generated and hybridised to Affymetrix Rat RG-U34ABC arrays.
Project description:Undifferentiated mouse embryonic stem cells stably expressing the HOXB1 transcription factor under doxycycline tet-on control were differentiated into embryoid bodies. Nestin+ neuroepithelial cells were selected by transfer of the embryoid bodies to ISTFn media. Expression of HOXB1 was induced by addition of doxycycline or not induced on the seventh day of selection and also for one day after trypsination and transfer to laminin/polyornithine substrate on matrigel substrate.
Project description:Study of genes expressed early during differentiation of L.donovani promastigotes into amastiogotes. In this experiment, gene expression changes were studied between and promastigotes and an intermediate stage of differentiation PA24(promastigotes after shifting to amastigote culture conditions for 24 hrs. PA24 RNA sample was labeled with Cy5 and pro sample was treated with Cy3.
Project description:Response of mouse mammary epithelial cells NMuMG to TGF-b1 - time course experiment. Identification of novel gene targets involved in TGF-b1-driven regulation of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).
Project description:An experiment was performed to investigate the perservation of gene expression upon metastasis of primary head and neck squamous cell carcinomas to the cervical lymph node.
